Question Lookin for Ideas.

I have a 2007 XLT 2WD with the towing package. I am looking to level the truck out and put some BFG all-terrain tires. Nothing to crazy just a little bit to make the truck wha I want. What do i need for the leveling kit, and what size tires are recommened. I am open to all suggetions. This is my first truck of my own and I am wanting it to look nice.

2.5 leveling kit and some 33" tires would help give it a more aggressive look...

Default thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I had a buddy of mine look at my truck and we measured the gaps in the wheel well and compared them from the front to the back. It seem it was right at 2inches, so thats what i ended up with. So when that gets here i will know where i stand. I am looking at some BFG A/T 265/70/r17 or 275/70/r17 or 285/70/r17. The differences are miniscule.

He has a 2005 FX4 with a 3 inch lift on the front and BFG M/T 35 1250's. It looks sweet. When we looked at his rear end his spacer block on the rear springs was a good 2 to 3 inches higher than mine. His 3 inch on the front actually makes the front a tiny bit higher than the back, but not noticeable by most. His front end also sat higher than mine initially. This due to the model of truck as well.


Either way i dont want to go to big because i dont do a bunch of off roading (the serious type). Like you said I just want more aggressive.

"miniscule" in tires makes a big difference in the "look" of the truck so choose them wisely. GL and post pics here when it's done.
